Stanley Park

By Timothy Taylor

Chef Jeremy Papier thinks you’re either a Crip or a Blood. Crips like fussy fusion cuisine, while Bloods – like Jeremy – stick with local ingredients. This quirky and satirical novel is set before the “eat local” movement was in full swing. It follows Jeremy’s attempt to succeed in the restaurant business while he negotiates his relationship with his father, an anthropologist studying homelessness in Vancouver’s Stanley Park. Like a weird recipe it all comes together – in unexpected ways.

Perfect for:

Readers who enjoy offbeat novels.

Foodies who like to read about their own kind.

Those who love books with a cup of wry and a dash of fiend.
